Nerf Jolt EX-1 Dart Holder (One or Two Darts!) by Caboose #3dthursday

Now here is a good use of all of the weapon-design energy from the Thingiverse community — weapons we can all get behind (and fire at each other). Take a look at the other DIY Nerf accessories here from a wide assortment of Thingiverse makers. And here is a Dart Holder from Thingiverse user Caboose, Thing 39241:

This model is a spare dart holder for the Nerf Jolt EX-1. It attaches to the top of the gun’s barrel. This model is very robust once attached to the gun, and will not move or rotate in any way. Print in black plastic for best color match.

UPDATE: Two dart model now available. The two dart model has contrast sights. Read instructions on how to assemble. Two colors of filiment recommended.

Every Thursday is #3dthursday here at Adafruit! The DIY 3D printing community has passion and dedication for making solid objects from digital models. Recently, we have noticed electronics projects integrated with 3D printed enclosures, brackets, and sculptures, so each Thursday we celebrate and highlight these bold pioneers!

Have you considered building a 3D project around an Arduino or other microcontroller? How about printing a bracket to mount your Raspberry Pi to the back of your HD monitor? And don’t forget the countless LED projects that are possible when you are modeling your projects in 3D!

The Adafruit Learning System has dozens of great tools to get you well on your way to creating incredible works of engineering, interactive art, and design with your 3D printer! If you’ve made a cool project that combines 3D printing and electronics, be sure to let us know, and we’ll feature it here!
